“As Eugene Peterson said, ‘We live in narrative, we live in story. Existence has a story shape to it. We have a beginning and an end, we have a plot, we have characters.’ Story is the language of the heart. …So if we’re going to find the answer to the riddle of the earth- and of our own existence- we’ll find it in story.”
~ John Eldredge, The Sacred Romance, p. 38
The answer to who we are and where we are going lies in our ability to evaluate our lives and to wrest from our past choices the reasons for our road.
It is a gift to be able to review your life and to find the arc of your story.
It is a tragedy if you cannot- or will not- take the time to ponder your life’s past path.
Write your own story.
